The guidance suggests a second fertilizer application in mid May to June 1 in addition to spring and fall feedings. This extra feeding promotes growth and spread, discouraging crab grass and knotweed, while a taller cut enhances the overall appearance and color of the lawn.

Turf Moth Emergence and Control Guidelines

Insects overwinter as larva in turf and emerge from late May with a first brood through late June to early July, then a second brood to mid September. Weather shifts dates. damage from overwintering insects and first generation is usually mild. A hot period can kill plants. Late season buildup harms grass during drought. Early insect control with fertilizers and insecticides is not always beneficial. Well fertilized lawns attract moth flights. If a heavy moth flight occurs, apply insecticide ten days later to control larvae. Emergence often in first two weeks of July. Effective control requires applications before injury. Top products include diazinon carbaryl or trichlorfon (Dylox). Insecticides target crowns where feeding occurs. granules work best. Use plenty of water to deliver to crowns. a garden hose sprayer is ideal due to high throughput.
